Re: For those interested to buy a System-8

Talking about modulations, I can't avoid to mention the single LFO. Compared to other synthesizers in the same price range, where at least 2 LFOs are available, the presence of a single LFO might be rather questionable. I've considered this carefully before buying, and the option to record knobs mo...

Re: What's left for System 1/1m/8 ACB plugouts ?

A one voice JP4 is pretty much the same as a Promars. So you can use that in your S1 I hope a Jupiter 6 is coming too as that’s my all time favorite. They should just make the LFO variation knob a selector knob for LFO 1 or 2. Shame they didn’t do that with the System-100 plug-out. All parameters of...

Re: System-1m Feature Request for Patch Cables

I don't think they will update the firmware of the System-1m anymore, although I would hope they will and add a better program change implementation (able to select native or plug-out engine and just use program change messages 1-64 instead of having to select a bank number for each 8 presets). Anyw...

Also an easier way to route LFOs into parameters would be greatly appreciated.
As a workaround, you could use one of the instrument channels to use as a trigger out. Then the last step option DOES work

Re: TR-8S : 2019 Feature Request

More fx (like all instrument fx) on the external input would be great. Also the ability to truly split the inputs into 2x mono with separate sidechain/fx settings per input would be awesome.

Re: When will a System 8 replacement launch?

i don’t think we will see a System-16 or something like that soon. Maybe another plug-out synth with a completely different layout, more suitable for the D-50, JD-800 or JV-1080. But it will complement the System-8, not replace.

Re: Wondering what else we will see as plugouts for the Syst

They could still do Jupiter-4 or Jupiter-6 plugouts. It makes sense to expand the collection, since it makes Roland Cloud more attractive (which brings in a constant supply of money). Both of those should work on the System-8. What I really want is the JP-6 bandpass filter. If they did do a Jupiter...

Re: Chord Memory Bug

Try powering up the S8 while holding down the pedal. This might flip its polarity. Maybe you can then set the settings to default

Re: UPDATE: Loyalty Program Discontinued!

The question you asked was about the limited 2-4 life offer. That ended in December. Roland didn’t actually say the complete loyalty program ended.

Re: '303' day, TB-303 released on Roland Cloud

Curious if anyone has compared (soundwise) the TB-03 with the VST already?

With the TB-03 being a perfect midi controller for it, it should be really easy to compare them, because the controls keep synced after tweaking a bit :)

Yes the problem only appears on MX-1’s with old firmware. It is fixed with 1.05
